VW and Audi Check Engine  Light (or MIL or EPC light) is not something to dismiss.  Ignoring this dash warning can cost you more money if you don’t address it sooner than later.  While a CEL can sometimes be a simple solution and repair, the engine light can often be a warning that greater problems are waiting.  

There are so many possible causes of an engine light on your vehicle’s instrument cluster: 

• Ignition components (spark plugs and ignition coils)
• Broken connectors or wiring harness
• Low oil level / oil pressure
• Cam sensor or camshaft problems
• Fuel pressure or fuel injectors
• Cooling system performance (water pump or thermostat)
• Broken engine internals
• Carbon on intake valves
• and the list goes on and on !

Diagnosing a Check Engine Light takes time and knowledge.  You don’t let an elbow doctor tell you why you have the sniffles.  So don’t let just any “car mechanic” tell you what’s wrong with your VW or Audi.  You drive a German vehicle that does not always fit into the normal repair approach.  Work with an automotive shop that knows and understands your import vehicle. 

Das Autohaus specializes in Volkswagen and Audi.  That is it.
